Window World Participates in St. Jude Give Thanks. Walk™ in 28 Locations Nationwide

CHARLOTTE, N.C., November 25, 2014 — Window World, Inc, America’s largest replacement window and home remodeling company, participated in the St. Jude Give thanks. Walk.™ Saturday, Nov. 22, 2014. This was the fifth year Window World participated in this event supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®.

Window World, Inc., located in North Wilkesboro, N.C., raised a total of $18,495, making it the top fundraising team in the Charlotte, N.C. region, which included over 80 teams. Leading the charge was Chairman and CEO Tammy Whitworth, whose total of $5,250 made her the top individual fundraiser in the entire Charlotte market.
“St. Jude remains near and dear to the hearts of the entire Window World Family,” said Whitworth. “Watching our teams from coast to coast helping others by participating in this event is truly remarkable. We’re honored to partner with such an incredible organization.”

In an earlier release, St. Jude shared that since the Give thanks. Walk began, it has raised more than $17 million to help provide cutting-edge treatment and pursue visionary research to find cures and save children battling cancer and other life-threatening diseases. These funds ensure that no family ever receives a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food.

Nationwide, Window World® participated in the walk with 28 teams raising over $106,000 through a combination of fundraising and sponsorships in their local areas. Every dollar raised contributes to the fundraising total for Window World Cares®, the charitable foundation of Window World. Next week, Window World will celebrate the fifth annual “Window World Day” at St. Jude in Memphis, Tennessee. The group will host a holiday party handing out gifts and participating in various activities with patients and their families.
